High myopia incurs a risk for developing uncorrectable vision loss at older age. An early onset of myopia imparts a relatively high risk for developing high myopia. Therefore starting with myopia management at an early age is essential. This implies that parents of myopic children play an important role, but little is known about factors they consider before deciding to proceed to myopia management for their child. An important aim of this study was to identify the (relative) importance of these parent-related factors.
